Saw This today.

What a load of old cack.

Even after an all day session including a shitload of drinking and continual smoking I never needed medical assistance. I just needed Goldeneye and MarioKart on the Nintendo 64.

I believe you need to smoke a spliff 2km long to OD on dope.

500 a week is a bit OTT In that case we should ll know someone who has been in hospital for it, I don't apart from a chest infection years ago that turned me off the stuff.

Like many things in life, weed is fine in moderation. I've smoked occasionally for decades. Never understood people who spliff up on a daily basis or smoke loads per day.

[Itchy]

Its probably like alcohol in moderation its fine.

But some people might have alergic reactions or bad reactions to it, but alas I am in agreement with Tobes here.

Weed gave me problems. Had depersonalization and anxiety - have to take anti-depressants and cognitive behavioural therapy

What is the real dangerous drug?

1220 binge-drinking Britons hospitalised each day
By staff writers

January 11, 2008 04:21pm

BRITISH hospitals are treating more than 1220 serious alcohol-related cases every day, a newspaper has reported.

According to The Daily Mail, on any given day there are 1222 separate cases of alcoholic liver disease, intoxication, alcohol-related mental or behaviour disorders, or alcohol-related injury in hospitals.

British Department of Health figures indicate 160,815 people were admitted to casualty wards for alcohol-related conditions last year.

The figure has skyrocketed by 99 percent since 2000 and the number of patients seen by consultants for alcohol-related disease has soared by 95 percent, the paper reported.

Among under-18s, there has been a 40 percent increase in hospital admissions in the last seven years, including serious liver problems, injuries from fighting and young people needing their stomachs pumped.

The increase coincides with the relaxation of licensing laws in 2005 which created 24-hour drinking, the paper reported.

The figures put pressure on British Prime Minister Gordon Brown to overhaul the Licensing Act.

Ian Gilmore, president of the Royal College of Physicians, said it shows the current measures to stem alcohol-related health damage aren’t working.

“That is why we have been looking for real evidence-based ways of reducing the burden of health damage for alcohol misuse, namely tackling price and availability,” Prof Gilmore said.

However, the Brown Government is expected to keep the Licensing Act in place with only a few minor tweaks, and is instead planning to target under-age drinkers and put an end to cheap supermarket offers.

You cant really compare the hospitalisation figures for alcohol to those of canabis. How may people in the uk drink, and how many smoke weed?
Drug use is certainly more widespead than it was in the 80's in my opinion. When I were a lad there were only odd pubs around here where you might find someone smoking a joint. These days they find traces of coke (not the fizzy stuff) in most town centre pubs. I'm sure in another 20 years it'll be worse again.

[Cigaro]

The thing is though, that if you smoke too much dope, you NEVER have to go to hospital.

It's just unheard of.

Unless you get cancer, of course.

[hellkat]

I don't know why people keep reading the results of medical research statistics and paying attention to them.

The amount of statistics that say smoking/eating/drinking is bad for you ... and then there was one last week (which I had to hide from Andy, LOL) which says that NOT drinking can be detrimental to your health.

Medical arguments and statistics are just another thing for the newspapers to distract us and give us something to discuss, and hence take our mind off what's really happening in the world.
